5.00Came back for a 2nd sail with Captain Larry. This time with my girlfriend:-). Another great sail, brought lunch on the boat and let's just say my gal thought it was very romantic. Another beautiful day and I'm even thinking of learning how to sail!
Great team bonding activity

5.00I had such a great time on Luna for a personal trip that I decided to book this as a team bonding activity with some coworkers visiting from out of town. It was an amazing way to show them the San Diego skyline and see the city from the water. They absolutely loved it and it was the highlight of their trip! 10/10 would recommend booking for business or pleasure.
Worth every cent!

5.00Wonderful time with Captain Doyle for a saturday midday sail! He taught my husband and I a lot about sailing during our trip, and even let us sail the boat! Luna is a gorgeous inside and out, and she sails like a dream! 10/10 recommend. Can't wait to go again.

5.00Our Midday sail was awesome. Captain Doyle was knowledgeable and professional and taught us a few things about sailing. A great way to see the bay. You can relax and enjoy or pitch in a bit to help sail.
